No, I didn't father any kids over there. Weren't a lot of women in my neighborhood. I used it as my CB handle many moons ago.

S for Stephen ( when I was smaller they called me Step Hen hence I became Steve) E for Edward .. my middle name and B for Blasdell... my last name and 1899 because when I first became an ie user 1999 was taken at most sites. So if you see seb1899 at many, many firearms sites it is I except for Gunbroker where I am known as seb1999 'cause it was not taken!!! Except for when I bid!!!

You know, kind of like it's been done before and is sooooo passe! Now gold, on the other hand, hasn't been beat to death in the media, and offers significant advantages over silver in both density and ductility. So that for the same bullet design you have about 50% greater weight and significantly better expansion, depending on the alloy you are using of course!

Since then, it got passed through out the system. Once in the system, you are tagged with it forever. When the internet came about, this name for me stuck through out the 50 states. I had no choice. I am used to it now, being 70, and to old to learn something new!,,,,,mc

Just wanted to real bad. However it was an SUV on the street that took me out permanetly with a mild brain injury. Now my hobby is recreational shooting and collecting. I just hope Obama doesn't take that away too!

I don't buy "collectables" for their value, but rather things that go BANG. I shoot all of my milsurp firearms along with non milsurp guns I own. I'm not worried about my milsurps having target accuracy. If it goes bang and something goes down range I'm happy. If it hits the target with reasonable accuracy, I'm very happy!

The add on part about "restoring yesteryear's trailer " somehow got stuck on by Yuku when I signed onto a forum about working on old campers. The camper is done now so if anyone can tell me how to remove it, please help.

I'm a flight test engineer and I do airdrop test from cargo planes. Sometimes we have malfunctions with mannequins or test cargo loads - CRUNCH! My career goal is to never crunch a live person. But plain old "Crunch" was already taken, so it's Crunch130, in honor of the C-130's I started in. I've also done a lot of work in C-17s. Crunch130

My Principal gave me the name since I was always messing with the computers and network wiring. Well and there was that one "incident" involving a 250,000 volt power supply for neon lighting and some improvised electrodes during a demonstration. "But I'm much better now."
